Weather or not?

In the movie they take wathering, to me it seems more screen acurate, they should take it all like the sandtrooper, nobody thinks of a sandtroopers without wathering. To give you wathering the best is airbrushes and pigments

*my personal opinion (as someone who hasn't built a full suit yet, but has built a number of props and helmets)*

 

even if you are going for a clean shiny set, I think weathering is a must.

I've had a lot of luck with water-based acrylic paints, brushed on heavy, then dried a little, then cleaned up with a damp cloth.

to my eye it gives the look of a suit that got dirty and has been cleaned by the user (cause that's literally what just happened. :-P ).

 

but I'm also a little biased, I tend to weather almost everything I own...

When i built my scout i made him squeeky clean, new from factory :D

 

Now after almost two years of troopings I think it is time to wheater it, mainly because how it gathered natural weathering just from using it. It has scratches all over it and boots are very dirty.
